Handbook of Radiation Effects

Reviews from previous edition ‘Compiled by two highly experienced researchers… Advanced training is not necessary in understanding the material… Excellent collection of references for each of the 15 chapters.’ Choice’ … Excellent text … Overall, the various sections give both an introduction and an in-depth treatise on the subject with the aim of providing a reference tool for engineers working in this area- this objective is clearly achieved … This publication should prove to be an essential reference work for all engineers involved in the design of electronic equipment for applications in a radiation environment’ Nuclear Energy’This is a much needed, cross-disciplinary volume. I expect the copies purchased will become much thumbed’ Atmospheric and Terrestrial Physics
